Luminare Press

Thanks for the enlightening presentation on self publishing. I have a better idea of what it takes to go forward.

I have been published 4 times – 3 through «traditional» channels and this last time through a self-​publishing process. Luminare is a professional as it gets. My book, Chiseled: a Memoir of Identity, Duplicity and Divine Wine, is ready for prime time and a national book tour. The publisher used the finest editors, designers and proof readers. The expertise and attention to detail was first rate. The quality of the process and the book itself is masterfully produced. I particularly liked the personal encouragement and direction that was given to this process. I am thrilled to have given this life work to Luminare.

I published my book through Luminare Press located right here in Eugene. I am so glad I did! At first, I was nervous about indie publishing but it has given me great control over my book and maximized my returns.
Luminare Press is tops! My book is drop dead gorgeous from cover to cover. It was a complicated formatting job and Patricia took it from word document to a professional book. The cover is gorgeous and I can’t stop admiring the total package.
Luminare Press was quick, efficient, ethical, everything I want in a business partner. I am so glad I went with her!!!
I know — too many exclamation marks — but how else does one communicate As Good As It Gets?

Patricia Marshall at LuminarePress offers publishing packages with options to add. I choose one I thought was affordable and included all the services I needed. Since my technical skills are minimal, Patricia Marshall was patient and available when I was confused. Personal assistance is important to me and I received more than expected during the publishing process. She worked extra quickly to help me meet a due date I had. I was thrilled with the published book. It looked better than I had imagined.

For your self-​publishing needs, Patricia Marshall and her staff at Luminare Press offers stellar service. Her publishing packages are custom built to provide customers with many layers of outstanding service. They will work with you even if you only need editing service, cover design, or the full works. Right off the bat, her charming personality sucks you in. She aims to please. Since this was my first time using an editor, I didn’t know what to expect. She spoke to me in a calm manner and alleviated my confusion. She broke the process down into manageable steps and kept me on track to my book publication date. I look forward to a long term relationship with Luminare Press.
